>Samba Codepage Files</H2
><P
>A text Samba codepage definition file is a description 
	that tells  Samba how to map from upper to lower case for 
	characters greater than ascii 127 in the specified DOS code page. 
	Note that for certain DOS codepages (437 for example) mapping 
	from lower to upper case may be non-symmetrical. For example, in
	code page 437 lower case a acute maps to a plain upper case A 
	when going from lower to upper case, but plain upper case A maps 
	to plain lower case a when lower casing a character. </P
><P
>A binary Samba codepage definition file is a binary 
	representation of the same information, including a value that
	specifies what codepage this file is describing. </P
><P
>As Samba does not yet use UNICODE (current for Samba version 2.2) 
	you must specify the client code page that your DOS and Windows 
	clients are using if you wish to have case insensitivity done 
	correctly for your particular language. The default codepage Samba 
	uses is 850 (Western European). Text codepage definition sample files
	are provided in the Samba distribution for codepages 437 (USA), 737 (Greek),
	850 (Western European) 852 (MS-DOS Latin 2), 861 (Icelandic), 866 (Cyrillic),
	932 (Kanji SJIS), 936 (Simplified Chinese), 949 (Hangul) and 950 (Traditional
	Chinese). Users are encouraged to write text codepage definition files for
	their own code pages and donate them to samba@samba.org. All codepage files
	in the Samba <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>source/codepages</TT
> directory are 
 	compiled and installed when a <B
CLASS="COMMAND"
>'make install'</B
> 
	command is issued there. </P
><P
>The client codepage used by the <B
CLASS="COMMAND"
>smbd</B
> server 
	is configured using the <B
CLASS="COMMAND"
>client code page</B
> parameter 
	in the <B
